About Sylvia
Hi, I’m Sylvia – a professional photographer with over 30 years of experience working as a photojournalist across news, sport, portraiture, and editorial photography. I hold a Diploma in Fine Art and have dedicated my career to capturing real, honest moments through the lens. My background in photojournalism means I bring a strong storytelling approach to everything I shoot and teach. I’m passionate about helping others learn photography in a way that feels approachable, empowering, and practical. Whether you're just starting out or looking to improve your portrait skills, I offer a supportive, down-to-earth learning experience tailored to your pace and goals. I understand what it's like to feel unsure with your camera settings or how to pose someone — and I’m here to guide you through those challenges with patience and encouragement. My goal is to help you feel confident behind the camera and to find your own creative voice.

My approach to tutoring is hands-on, relaxed, and tailored to each student’s needs. I believe the best way to learn photography is by doing, so I combine simple explanations with practical exercises that build confidence and creativity. Whether you're brand new to using a camera or looking to refine your portrait skills, I’ll guide you step by step — breaking down technical settings like aperture, shutter speed, and ISO into easy-to-understand concepts. We'll also explore natural light, posing techniques, and how to tell a story through your images.
Each lesson typically runs for 60 to 90 minutes and can be held one-on-one, either in person or online. I hold a Diploma in Fine Art and bring over 30 years of real-world experience as a professional photojournalist, having worked across news, sport, editorial, and portraiture. My tutoring is ideal for beginners, teens, adult hobbyists, and anyone looking to develop a stronger creative voice through photography. All you need is curiosity and a camera .
